Raiders Fans Post Here!
Any Raiders fans on the board?
Put up any interesting stories you have like games, how you became or why you're a fan, favorite players, whatever, etc.
I was born and raised a Texan and have never been to a Raiders game or in the bay area but I've been a fan since I was around 10.
They had the best athlete in sports, Bo Jackson, so this is why I liked them but even after he left I stuck with them and they continued to have or get players I liked....Tim Brown (underrated), Howie Long, Ronnie Lott, Steve Wisniewski, Willie Gault, MARCUS ALLEN, and later on Hoss, The Rocket, Rod Woodson, Desmond Howard, Charles Woodson, and the list goes on. Let's not forget Napoleon Kaufman! Man he was sick!
While I fan I read about the history so I got more attached and learned about the foundation. After all this switching teams ain't happenin! Fred Biletnikoff, Cliff Branch, Ray Guy, Art Shell, Gene Upshaw, shit even Todd Christiansen. Many more. What a tradition.
I'll admit I'm not a die hard fan but I've stuck with them through thick and thin. Really hard to do that living where I do but it's a dream of mine to go to a home game one of these days. Hopefully against the Broncos. Boooooo!
So with all that being said I'm looking forward to this upcoming season. Maybe JeMarcus can earn his 66 million. McFadden's looking solid in camp and the defense has potential. I'm a Longhorn fan so I really like Michael Huff.
Well we'll see what happens. Gotta get through the Chargers. If not this season, the 2009 season we should be in the playoffs for sure. We better be!
Post up your experiences and anything else you'd like to say!
GO RAIDERS!

ole duck hunt hound. had a flashback there for a minute
Well contenders based on the defense for the most part. The secondary looks pretty strong and we added some experience to the line.
As for the offense, the line has improved and McFadden should do decent if he stays healthy. He's just as if not more talented than Adrian Peterson but it's just a matter of getting him the offense that's best for him. Hopefully he does more than bush did but 2 totally different styles.
JaMarcus has some good quaterback qualities but is still really a rookie so still has alot to learn. The veterans around him should speed that process up but the experience will do the most and his ass needs to play first. I'm still disappointed in him.
Hopefully Javon can keep champagne spraying to a minimal and be just a little more careful. $3000 in cash and over 100k worth of jewelry? 100k worth of jewelry? No comment.

nother Raider hater here 
So they managed to stop hiring 49er and Charger wash-outs.... and the Bengals have taken over as literally the convicts of the league, maybe things really are looking up for the Raiders for once!
oh and Russell hasn't proven ANYTHING yet... except that he's another rookie that wasted a bunch of time by proving nothing and holding out

And let's talk about the offseason and the draft. Davis gives some guy named Tommy Kelly at the time the richest deal to a defensive tackle. Heck no one even knew who this guy was. And then giving javon walker a 55 million contract with essentially if i remember correctly a guaranteed 12 million in the first year. This guy essentially didn't play at all last year, he could've easily signed him to a cheap deal.
And onto mcFadden, i mean how do you pass up on a guy like Glenn Dorsey who is an immediate upgrade over any current d tackle on the team? The line needs serious work. I mean running the ball was about the only good thing the team did last year and in a zone blocking scheme a number of RBs could succeed. I mean they still have michael bush who was a potential first round pick but was dropped to the 5th because of injury. If davis thinks he's getting the next Adrian Peterson he is mistaken. Peterson is a totally different beast. NO way McFadden is anywhere near as good as Peterson.
Russell is unproven and won't probably do a whole lot since that o-line doesn't know how to pass block.
Sadly this organization will not even sniff respectability with Al Davis calling all the shots.

i hate overzealous raiders fans. Some fans are just a little too ridiculous and give a bad name to thousands of others. Maybe I just ran into some really rude people, but they gave a bad name to probably a lot of good people in my book. I think i've had the worst experiences with Raider and OU fans. 
I'll admit I liked the raiders when they were in LA, I guess being born in 1984, I only knew them as the LA raiders, and I remember feeling betrayed when the raiders and rams left in the same year. Some of their best years were in LA anyways, they should move back
. I still kinda like the team, even though the fans get to me sometimes. Randy Moss was one of my favorite players in minnesota, so it was hard for me to watch him struggle in Oakland.
I hope mcfadden was a good pickup. I enjoyed watching him in college. But he did play in an unconventional offense. McFadden put up pretty crazy numbers at the combine, but it's really hard to tell. If he turns out to be a star, I think I could get back behind the Raiders. Right now I'd have to put them behind the Chargers and the 49ers, for the California teams I feel like I am obligated to root for. I don't think anyone could've predicted the kinda player peterson was going to be. As a vikings fan, I was thrilled when minnesota picked up peterson (even though I didn't like OU), and thought he'd be good, but I would've never guessed he would break the single game rushing record and be the mvp of the probowl in his rookie year. Even Reggie Bush, who was supposed to be the next superstar running back hasn't seen near the success of peterson (although his team did get into the playoffs).

decisions. I'll admit he's picked up some good ones but has overpaid and picked up some too. Freakin 55 mil for Walker? 66 for Russell? Again.... And we'll just see about DeAngelo but they still overpaid him. Damn where does Al get all this money? I think the 10 mil for 1 yr for Charles Woodson in 99 or whenever it was was ridiculous. He wasn't THAT good.So I like you can easily point out the Al Davis BS. And being in TX and with the Cowboys being my 2nd fav team, I've been seeing it from Jerry Jones for years now. Just in a different way but not to different.
I think McFadden was a good pick up. They just need to use him right. And Gallery needs to get his shit together.
I'm not in no way saying my team will be top contenders but do have a decent chance in their division if they can again get their shit together. But I'll aknowledge the Chargers as being superior right now. Not one of those overzealous fans.
There's one thing about being loyal, pumped up, and being all Raider nation but doing that shit to other teams and fans like the Eagles do is just going to far. This is still just a game and a sport. It's entertainment....yeah a big business too but no one needs to get shot or beat over it, especially the paying fans anyways.
And I won't go into those "thugged" up fans some of whom are yes true fans but some of those who don't know what a shotgun formation is or have never heard of or wouldn't know how many Super Bowls the team has one if you asked him.
Osamu, the way you feel about the move back to Oakland is how Oakland fans felt about the move to LA but even worse. Again, Al Davis. He's done good but recently alot of bad. But they WERE in a SB not to long ago so better that than nothing. Trying to be a little zealous here.
They have a setup that is worth finding out how it will turn out. Last season I knew from the get go it was bunk from the get go and watching games was a joke. So atleast we can see and have some suspense and curiousity this year. A real fan will do some bashing on his/her own team too and I won't hesitate to bring up the crap, or tomatoes
We'll just have to see. Of course Super Bowls for most are far and few between but I'd like to see them make the playoffs a few times in the next decade. That would be nice.

Oh Hullow
i hope the broncos can pick up where they left off a few yrs ago when they made it to the afc championship against the steelers ... the afc west was always my fav division to watch aside from the nfc east... its funny, because i am a broncos fan but also support the raiders, but on top of all of that im a giants fan... i just despise the chiefs + chargers haha... and of course the cowboys, eagles + redskins.
i am thinking of picking up a mcfadden jersey, but i dont want him to turn into one of those draft busts and me waste money for an authentic down the drain haha... J-Ritch is absolutely right about davis' over spending... it is out of control, i like how they are trying to build a young, solid team, but they need to start paying for proven talent, not young fresh out of college rookies... let them earn their stripes in the league.

Bush on the other hand was just simply overhyped since he could outrun defenders by going side to side and he was not known for hitting the hole. Any die hard college football fans that I know even told me bush was gonna be a bust since he has terrible vision, he hesitates while trying to take it up the middle, and he's soft. Not great attributes in the NFL, while he may have outrun all the defenders in college, there is no way a player can be able to do that consistently. Bush is a better receiver than a RB. And for any Bush apologist out there that says otherwise and will respond with "give him some more time, he needs to adjust to NFL, etc" you need to understand RB is the easiest skill position for a rookie to pick up. The fact he still hasn't played up to the kind of hype and draft pick in 2 years must tell you something. He was given the full gig in year 2 and still underachieved severely. And in case the apologists want to say "Saints run blocking isn't very good." Well Deuce McAllister ran behind a "bad" oline and he's been able to break 1000 yards.

I like LT. If McFadden turns out nice the AFC west will have a nice RB tandem.
Tomlinson, LJ, Darren, and maybe Selvin Young (Hook em!) can go off of his impressions from last year
Yeah I'm looking forward to the SD vs Oak matchups
Should be different from last year!!!!!!!!

well I've always liked the Cowboys but got attached to the silver n black once I became familiar with the players and learned more about the history. AFC west rivalries, awesome HOF players, and speed.
From the shitty days of Todd Marinovich to the early retirement of Napoleon Kaufman and thrashing in the SB by the Buccs I've just stuck with them.
I do root for the Cowboys but Jerry Jones is like a George Steinbrenner and Al Davis combined.
Its more that I've liked the players than the team and whole franchise itself.
I could go on and on about the Jerry Jones crap
I heard Tiger Woods is a Raider man too

Is Russell below 280lbs yet? 
My buddy at work is a die hard Raiders fan and him and the Assistant Manager have a bet going. $100.. At least 6 wins is a win, 5 is a push, and 4 or less wins for the Raiders and he loses. Also, if they get 4 or less he has to lick my manager's balls.

I would stay the hell away from whoever made that part of the deal.

I say 4 wins MAX for Oakland this year.
D is ok, but they are going to be on the field A LOT. Your receiver corps is suspect, and Russell is TERRIBLE. Bad footwork, bad reads, throwing off his back foot, etc.
